Burial

[edit]

This article says that Goronwy was buried in Bangor. But the link just points to the disambiguation page. This information should either be more specific, explained, or removed. Mellie107 (talk) 00:10, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article had the burial details for the wrong Goronwy anyway. Miyagawa (talk) 14:57, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bannockburn

[edit]

Give that there was a large portion of Welsh spearmen who surivived the retreat from Bannockburn, and that Goronwy was a foot soldier - it seems likely that was among their number. But so far, no indication of a source that would support that hypothesis. Miyagawa (talk) 14:57, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good. I'll review this shortly. JAGUAR  17:33, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Initial comments

[edit]
  • "and Lord of Penmynydd" - link Penmynydd for accessibility
  • "but retained his titles under the conquest of Wales by King Edward I of England" - it would be good to link Conquest of Wales by Edward I in this sentence
  • "Around the same time, as a yeoman of the King" - king doesn't need to be capitalised
  • "they were dismissed on 4 August" - which year? Is this still 1316?
  • "Goronwy was interned after his death in the west wall of the Franciscan Llanfaes Friary" - shouldn't this be on the west wall?
  • "and was himself the grandfather of King Henry VII of England, the founder of the Royal House" - how about {{xt|the founder of the [[House of Tudor}}?
  • No dead links
  • No dab links

Very minor points and suggestions, but overall nice work with this. I'll leave this on hold until they're out of the way. JAGUAR  17:44, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Jaguar: Thanks for the review, I've made those changes as suggested. Just two exceptions - one was "in" the west wall, as it was literally in the wall itself is some type of antichamber, and the other was that I didn't link to House of Tudor in the founder line, only because I'd done so a few lines earlier.

Thanks for addressing them! By all means, I'll promote this now. I thought that "in the wall" would have been correct as I knew walls could have had tunnels in them etc. JAGUAR  22:17, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
